There’s a lot to talk about!
What two topics dominate energy debate today? Easy – global warming and energy security. With booming economies in China and India, worldwide demand for energy isn’t going away. It’s going up. And the question of how to meet the world’s energy appetite while reducing the threat of global warming has never been more critical.
There’s a clear reason why many environmentalists, policy makers and the general public are becoming strong supporters of nuclear energy. Nuclear is a safe, reliable, cost-effective alternative. It does not emit greenhouse gases. Nor does it emit acid rain producing gases. And there’s more buzz. Right now, countries representing half the world’s population are building new nuclear power plants.
At Cameco, we believe the world needs nuclear — the clean air energy. That’s something to talk about.
Our Profile
Cameco, with its head office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, is the world’s largest uranium producer and supplier of conversion services.

“Strong, ethical leadership is critical
to achieve our vision to be a dominant
nuclear energy company.”
Cameco’s commitment to continual improvement begins with sound corporate governance.
The board is responsible for ensuring that Cameco is positioned to take full advantage of the outstanding opportunity offered by the nuclear industry. In doing so, we are committed to the principles of sustainable development to ensure that we continue to attract and retain the best people, build shareholder value, strengthen our reputation as the developer and partner of choice, and retain the loyalty of our customers.
We have always taken governance seriously. Strong, ethical leadership is critical to our success. We believe that Cameco has an exceptional management team with the integrity, skills, knowledge and experience to achieve our vision to be a dominant nuclear energy company.
In 2006, we further evolved the board’s best practices to meet changing investor and market expectations and, quite simply, to do what we believe to be the right thing. We met increasingly high standards for integrity and diligence in risk management. We ensured a sharp focus on Cameco’s business by limiting the number of other corporate boards on which our directors may sit. We also made the board more accountable through enhanced board election, review procedures and the adoption of a majority voting policy.
Our commitment to ethical conduct has been communicated throughout the company, and reinforced by the establishment of effective, independent reporting channels.
We strengthened our board with the addition of Anne McLellan. As a former senior federal cabinet minister and deputy prime minister, Anne has extensive knowledge of government and administration in Canada where many of our core assets are located. In her political life, Anne took on the most challenging files and earned respect from people across the ideological spectrum through the capable handling of difficult issues and forthright communication. I am delighted that she has accepted a position on our board and look forward to her participation in our efforts to build value for Cameco’s shareholders.
Cameco’s ability to sustain the high quality of its management team was tested in 2006 by the planned retirement of Terry Rogers, senior vice-president and chief operating officer. Terry has brought valuable international experience and sound

technical judgment to Cameco’s management team. For the time being, Terry graciously has agreed to delay his retirement to oversee the initial stages of the remediation of the Cigar Lake project where a major water inflow occurred in October 2006, and we thank him for his continuing commitment.
Joining Cameco to replace Terry as senior vice-president and chief operating officer is Tim Gitzel.
Tim has accumulated extensive senior management experience in uranium mining while serving as a senior executive with AREVA, most recently as executive vice-president responsible for global uranium mining operations. On behalf of the board, I would like to take this opportunity to formally welcome Tim to our company.
Our industry continued to make progress in 2006. Nuclear energy is increasingly seen as part of the solution to global environmental problems. Uranium prices nearly doubled and the world’s most powerful economies, led by the US, continued to progress toward new nuclear generation capacity.
In recognition of our confidence in the company’s financial condition and future prospects, we increased our dividend for 2007 by 25%, representing the fourth increase in the past five years.
We enter 2007 with a well-considered business plan, and solid governance practices. We believe Cameco is well positioned to meet the challenges and capitalize on the opportunities that will emerge in the coming year, and to continue to build sustainable value in the interests of you, our shareholders.

How is the company doing?

In October 2006, Cameco celebrated its 18th anniversary having become, over this period, one of the world’s largest suppliers of uranium concentrates and conversion services. On the strength of this foundation, the company has become internationally recognized as a nuclear energy company, vertically integrated – from global exploration through to the generation of clean nuclear electricity. The latest acquisition, Zircatec Precision Industries, in early 2006, completed Cameco’s ability to serve the entire Candu reactor fuel cycle.

The company’s achievements did not come overnight. Instead, they reflect a strong vision and deliberate strategies adopted through our longstanding strategic planning process. Each year, Cameco evaluates the state of the nuclear industry, gauges its prospects, tests its vision and adopts appropriate short- and long-term objectives.
The company is now poised for further growth driven by much improved markets and a renewed sense of optimism about nuclear energy. Indeed, many countries in both the developed and developing world are building or planning to build the next generation of nuclear energy plants. And, while licensing and construction can take as long as a decade, the recognition of the many benefits of nuclear technology will assure a strong market for Cameco products well into the future and provide new opportunities for growth.
We’ve seen the price of uranium almost double over the past year and Cameco has benefited from this with higher realized prices and new contracts that promise to deliver value in the years ahead. Conversion prices, too, have increased and remain robust. With the rise in prices, Cameco’s share price has increased dramatically over the past four years. The rate of increase slowed somewhat last year, as energy stocks became more volatile and as Cameco faced several production challenges while continuing to deliver into lower priced legacy contracts. Currently, we are signing long-term contracts which capture in full, the new price structure.
“We are now entering
an era of strong prices and
increased demand.”
The challenges are there and they are being confronted with enthusiasm. Cameco, with its solid foundation, is an extremely resilient company, entering an era of strong prices and increased demand. Our position of leadership in an exciting industry allows us to attract and retain the best people, all dedicated to delivering the multiple benefits of nuclear energy to mankind.
Cameco, then, is doing very well and is gaining strength every day as we conduct our business, meet our challenges and seize opportunities.

The McArthur River high-grade uranium mine produced at licenced capacity again in 2006, mining 18.7 million pounds. The mine is located more than 600 kilometres north of Cameco’s head office in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

What issues is Cameco dealing with?
No company will grow and prosper without occasionally being challenged. Cameco is no exception. And the challenges or issues we currently face are made all the more urgent by the increased expectations resulting from rapidly rising uranium prices and demands for nuclear energy. Indeed, these expectations affect the entire business and will influence our future in many different ways.
Over its short history, Cameco has delivered growth through discovery, acquisition and a sound marketing approach. Continuing this trend is a priority, with the focus being on growth in uranium production and conversion services. Today, Cameco benefits by having geographically diversified production sources and intends to build on this advantage. Two mine developments are underway – Cigar Lake in Saskatchewan and Inkai in Kazakhstan. Our United States in situ leach mines are expanding. And, of course, we are exploring globally for the next big discovery.
Concurrently, we are also seeking opportunities in enrichment, fabrication and generation. The reality, however, is that higher prices and expectations for nuclear energy have made opportunities in these segments very expensive.
Cameco has pursued its growth strategies with financial discipline and intends to do the same in the future. Hence, growth opportunities will be evaluated carefully and will not be undertaken just to add bulk.
“While the water inflow presents
a serious challenge, Cigar Lake will become
a significant production source.”
Cigar Lake is central to our strategy of production diversification. In October 2006, the project suffered a setback when an underground tunnel collapsed allowing large volumes of water to flood the mine. Cameco and its partners are now focused on its remediation. Cigar Lake is not an easy orebody to develop or mine, but we are committed to extracting the considerable value represented by the known reserves and resources. And, while the water inflow presents a serious challenge, Cigar Lake will become a significant production source. In the meantime, the development of the Inkai deposit continues in Kazakhstan with the strong support of our joint venture partner, KazAtomProm.

Higher uranium prices are driving new investment in exploration, development and expansion. Cameco is engaged in all of these. Exploration in many countries is state-controlled, not open to foreign investment or ownership. Cameco is working to overcome these obstacles and announced several new partnerships in 2006, leading to increased access for exploration and possible development.
Efforts to expand production in response to better market conditions have been challenged by environmental and licensing issues and, while there is a path to success, achieving production increases in the uranium industry is a slow process. Cameco is not unique in this respect, as the entire industry is suffering from the lack of meaningful exploration and investment over the past two decades. Fortunately, Cameco retained its highly-skilled exploration team throughout the lean period and is well positioned to compete in the new exploration cycle.
Today, a new cycle of exploration is underway that will generate internal and external opportunities. To take advantage of these, Cameco is positioning itself to become a partner of choice. We will do this by pursuing environmental leadership in all that we do. By exemplifying this leadership, our development, expansion and acquisition plans should proceed more expeditiously. A first test will be the renewal of our Key Lake and Rabbit Lake facilities as well as the implementation of Vision 2010, our plan to modernize the Port Hope conversion facility.
Cameco faces other challenges, which include finding more efficient ways of conducting our business, managing change and confronting issues – with a proper balance between work and home – all the while having fun along the way.
As we successfully deal with the issues before us, we will become stronger and even more resilient.

What are you doing to achieve sustainable development?
Sustainable development is not a new concept to Cameco. We have been practising it for well over a decade by making sure that the communities we impact benefit from our operations. This has been our objective wherever we operate and includes education and health initiatives as well as community infrastructure and business development. As we build on the success of each initiative, we know that the improved economic base and capability of these communities will outlast our presence – a true measure of sustainability. Moreover, we continue to look for new ways of making sure that immediate benefits become sustainable over the longer term.
Early Cameco efforts regarding social responsibility have evolved with industry practice, and we now define sustainability more broadly to include stakeholders beyond our traditional impact communities. We measure all of our effects on the environment and put this in the context of delivering value to our shareholders and

employees through solid financial performance. Often referred to as the triple bottom line, Cameco measures its performance and sets aggressive goals for continual improvement. And, overall, our performance has been very good, but there are always areas where we can do better. Our facilities suffered from a lack of investment in the weak market that spanned the last two decades. Now, with much better prices and promises of robust future cash flow, Cameco is committed to renewing its facilities, lessening their impact on the environment and allowing them to serve regional production needs for decades to come. Their continued operation will provide sustainable benefits for all of Cameco’s stakeholders.
Measurement of our performance is being done through our sustainability report, the second edition of which was recently released on our website. We intend to make this more current as our ability to collect relevant data improves. By publishing this data, we intend to keep score, demonstrate continual improvement and prove that the generation of nuclear energy, in its full dimension, is sustainable over the long term.
Finally, as we measure our performance, the goals we set for ourselves will be guided by our commitment to environmental leadership. The journey will be long, but filled with the satisfaction of knowing that what we do will make a positive contribution to the world.

> In 2006, the uranium spot price jumped dramatically to $72 per pound, a 96% increase over 2005.

Cameco has delivered significant shareholder value over the previous four years and we are committed to continuing this trend. We will do so, in part, by securing the benefits of record uranium and conversion prices through the design of our contract portfolio and by pursuing growth opportunities that meet our financial expectations.

In the longer term, we know that increasing shareholder value must be built on a strong foundation. So, in

“We are securing the benefits of record
uranium and conversion prices through the
design of our contract portfolio.”
2007, we will continue our focus on fundamentals by providing a safe, healthy and rewarding workplace. We will strive to mitigate our environmental impacts through the pursuit of environmental leadership. Accordingly, at each of our business operations, we will continue to implement strategies and actions to significantly reduce our impacts to air, water and land, and to decrease our consumption of energy. The use of our quality management system to identify risks and drive continued improvement in these areas will be crucial to our success.
In my response to an earlier question, I referred to the setback we experienced in 2006 at Cigar Lake. Getting the project back on its development track for production startup in 2010 will be a high priority in 2007. We have a dedicated team of very talented people working on the remediation program, and we know the market will require the output from this extraordinarily valuable orebody.
High uranium and conversion prices provide a great incentive to better our production targets, but, in doing so, we must observe our commitments to safety, environment and cost control. We intend to lay the foundation for our next mine development by completing a feasibility study on the Millennium deposit, while increasing substantially our commitment to finding significant new orebodies through exploration. Growth initiatives will also be pursued in uranium production and vertically with a focus on conversion services. Moreover, we will continue to search for ways of entering the enrichment business that add value to Cameco.
The pursuit of the foregoing priorities, as well as the other objectives we have set for 2007, will only succeed if we achieve excellence in our performance. Cameco’s leadership development program, started two years ago, is well on its way to ensuring we have the leaders we need at all levels of the organization. The momentum we have created through the program will be carried forward in 2007 and accelerated by inclusion of front-line supervisors. The change in culture at Cameco is palpable and our commitment to creating better leaders dedicated to creating shareholder value will continue.

What does the future look like?
Neils Bohr opined that “prediction is very difficult, especially of the future.” So, I answer this question with great trepidation and the humility that comes when looking at the accuracy of my previous forecasts.
We entered 2006 with uranium prices at record levels, robust global exploration programs and more than a few companies with plans for new production. Yes, the markets have been sending the appropriate signals for new investment, but we have discovered how difficult it is, in today’s world, to expand or bring on new production. It appears that the industry will struggle with supply uncertainty for several more years –until some of the big questions are answered around the Russian highly enriched uranium supply post 2013, the timing and extent of mine expansion, and new mine development. Until then, inventory accumulation will put pressure on prices. Over the longer term, however, we are confident that recoverable uranium is abundant and, like every other commodity, production will someday exceed demand and prices will become volatile. Of course, the timing of this is the difficult thing to get right.

12

#####

What is more certain is the demand side of the equation. For the next few years, we can reliably predict what world requirements will be based upon existing nuclear plants and those under or soon to be under construction. As we look beyond the next five years or so, demand seems likely to accelerate due to aggressive construction programs in Russia and Asia. China has just ordered four Westinghouse advanced pressurized reactors, and has expressed additional interest in two European pressurized reactors (EPR). India is on the verge of being integrated into the world nuclear community with its own ambitious construction plans and other Asian countries are on the cusp of placing orders. With the construction of the first EPR in Finland now underway, and a twin unit planned for France, the next generation of nuclear plants is finally being ordered and built. Their success will set the stage for a significant new construction program in the rest of Europe and in North America.
All of this activity confirms that the much discussed nuclear renaissance is underway. It is underway largely because nuclear offers security of supply, price predictability and energy diversity. Unlike fossil fuels, which release waste into the atmosphere, nuclear contains its relatively small volume of used fuel generated over the last 40 years. Longer-term storage and disposal have been shown to be technically feasible, but require political leadership. And, when the world finally becomes serious about constraining carbon emissions, nuclear energy will have a further impetus – its unquestioned cost competitiveness. The cost of electricity produced by nuclear plants is quite insensitive to the price of uranium and there is plenty of uranium to sustain the industry for the long term.
Construction of the next generation of nuclear plants will translate into a robust and growing market for uranium and conversion. Indeed, since uranium fuel is ordered by customers well in advance of a new plant’s production of electricity, the uranium market will begin seeing the effects of the nuclear renaissance by the end of this decade.
Cameco will respond to this positive outlook for nuclear energy by pursuing its vision to be a dominant nuclear energy company producing uranium fuel and generating clean electricity.

Canada’s largest province has committed to sustain nuclear energy’s 54% share of its electricity supply mix. With demand increasing, existing nuclear plants will have to be refurbished and new plants built to maintain nuclear’s share. Bruce Power and Ontario Power Generation have each applied for regulatory approval to prepare their sites for construction of new reactors.

World reactor plans

Over the next 10 years, the number of reactors in operation around the world is expected to increase to more than 500 from the current level of about 430. In Asia, 60 reactors are scheduled to be built over the next decade. Most will be built in China and India, but other Asian countries with large populations and Construction in Japan rapidly expanding economies are moving toward nuclear generation including Vietnam and Indonesia.

US licenses first nuclear facility in 30 years

In June 2006, the US NRC granted a licence to construct and operate a gas centrifuge uranium enrichment plant in Lea County, New Mexico. The National Enrichment Facility is the first major commercial nuclear facility licensed in the US in three decades and a clear signal that the nuclear renaissance is proceeding in America.

Nuclear co-operation The world’s most populous countries with the fastest growing economies are looking to secure uranium supplies and trade and technology links to sustain their burgeoning nuclear energy programs. Australia is working toward a treaty allowing transfer of nuclear material and technology to China for peaceful purposes and the US Congress has approved a nuclear co-operation agreement with India.

Leading opponent now strong supporter

Leading environmentalist and Greenpeace co-founder Patrick Moore (left) has formed a grassroots coalition to support development of nuclear energy in the US. The Clean and Safe Energy Coalition (CASEnergy) is intended to unite business people, environmentalists and academics in support of nuclear energy as a way to promote environmental health and economic well-being.
